Watch Stranger Things' Finn Wolfhard explain his love of Canadian punks PUP
PUP have a famous fan in actor Finn Wolfhard - aka Stranger Things' Mike Wheeler.
In a new video that aired during the Polaris Music Prize ceremony last night, Wolfhard explains his love of the Canadian punk rockers. In the video Wolfhard also kills off a couple of PUP-ers in gruesome, Stranger Things-y ways via Dungeons & Dragons dice rolls: "You caught the White Lung from Grimes... on the Black Mountain!"
Wolfhard was actually in a video of PUP's as a young version of frontman Stefan Babcock - check out "Guilt Trip".
PUP were shortlisted for the prize for their LP The Dream Is Over. The Polaris Prize was eventually scooped by Montreal producer Kaytranada.
Stranger Things season two was recently confirmed - here's what we wanna hear on the soundtrack.
